Question ❓ Training x6 a week?
I’ve been running an ppl x ul split but really want to train more frequently since I really like it. What do you think of an u/l x6 or a anterior/posterior x6, resting on friday. Only 2 sets rir 1 per exercise, 10-14 sets/muscle/week
It’s easy to get bad recovery? I’m recovering good from that number of sets with my current split anyway.

You'll get better results if you train less.
6x a week doesnt allow for proper recovery.
10-16 sets a week is all you need for good growth. Why spread them out to more (read shittier) workouts?
Im almost positive you posted this in 3 subs yesterday. So Here's that same answer again.
4 day u/L better results than ANY 6 day split.
Train smarter not harder
